06 August 2014 - Freedom Park is Re-Opened

Government forces began to remove the barricades and razor wire that has isolated Freedom Park for months. Coming the day after the swearing in of the 55 CNRP newly elected members of the National Assembly, the opening seemed an obvious admission that the closure was politically motivated to stifle the political opposition. The official justification for closing the park included statements that it was necessary to conduct an investigation. Will the results of the investigation now be made public? Outside of the Assembly has anything really changed?
